South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) has handed down a murder conviction ruling on athlete Oscar Pistorius, replacing the initial culpable homicide sentence.
Five judges who heard the state's arguments last month unanimously agreed the Blade Runner should be found guilty of murdering his model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine's Day in 2013.
